My cats refuse to get their nails cut

[sue f]

I wouldnt even attempt to cut Gracie's myself ! My partner took her to her vet surgery last week for her flea and claws clipped and apparently she bit the vet (it's a vet I don't really like so I kinda didn't mind...) ! The vet had to call a vet nurse in to help ! It's propably not cost effective to leave it to vets but it saves me struggling !

The vet techs at my vet tried last weekend to clip Luciano's claws, but could only do the back ones. I think at one point they had four people in there trying to do it. They told me to give him 1ml gabapentin by mouth two hours before his next appointment and they will try again. The prescription costs $10 more than the trim, but next time maybe I'll try doing the trimming myself if he responds properly to the gabapentin.
